Customers will get a zip folder and they have to extract the contents of this zip folder on their system. The extracted folder has an src folder, inside the src folder you have the app folder. You need to transfer this app folder into the Magento 2 root directory on the server as shown below.

After the successful installation, you have to run these commands in the Magento 2 root directory: First command – php bin/magento setup:upgrade

Translation

If a user wants to translate their module from English to German then they need to follow the path app/code/Webkul/MpDHLShipping/i18n in their unzipped folder and will get a CSV file with name “en_US.csv”. Now they will rename that CSV as “de_DE.csv” and translate all right side content after the comma in the German language.

After editing the CSV, save it and then upload it to the path app/code/Webkul/MpDHLShipping/i18n where they have installed Magento 2 on the server. The module will get translated into the German Language. It supports both RTL and LTR languages.

The user can edit the CSV like the image below.
